Horrific news frm UK:90% of whites have few or no black friends
I'm thrilled that Tony Blair will be soundly defeated in the upcoming election. His socialist govt's mauling of a once proud and noble nation is shameful. Blair, his mouthy wife, and his Labor gov't should be deported to a Third World nation of their choice. Here's the latest waste of taxpayer $ - a blame whitey study sponsored by a blue ribbon "Commission for Racial Equality."More than nine out of 10 white Britons have no or hardly any ethnic minority friends, according to a poll that reveals the continuing gulf between races and religions more than 40 years after the UK became a multicultural society. The Guardian has seen details of the survey, to be released this week by the Commission for Racial Equality. It shows that a majority of white people do not share the bonds of close friendship with their fellow black, Asian or Muslim Britons, meaning they may lack the empathy that close contact can bring. The CRE warns this leaves swaths of the population open to believing the worst of different ethnic and religious groups. The poll found that 94% of white people say most or all their friends are of the same race, while 47% of ethnic minorities say white people form all or most of their friends. More than half of white people, 54%, said they did not have a single black or Asian person they considered a close friend. More than eight out of 10 white people have no friends who are practising Muslims, and only one in 10 white people was close to a Hindu or Sikh. Pollsters YouGov asked 2,065 white and 808 ethnic minority people aged over 18 for details of their closest 10 to 20 friends in an internet survey. Peter Kellner of YouGov said: "It is unusual for white Britons to have any close friends who are from the ethnic minorities. He said this had an effect on the knowledge the majority white community had of their ethnic minority fellow citizens. "There is an empathy born of experience. With a great number of white people there is not that empathy born of experience." ... The Guardian reporter, Vikram Dodd, is beside himself with sorrow. Posted by: rex 2004-07-19 |
